011110WarmUp

Today's date looks downright binary!

Did you know that on November 6th that an asteroid came within 8700 miles of the earth, the astronmical equivalent of a bullet grazing your skin.

What would would we earthlings do? Shoot a missle? Fire a rocket? Hire Bruce Willis to blow it up like in the movie "Armageddon" ?

Here are some strategies:

    well, this warmup brings out a great topic to discuss. These Astroids heading towards earth can be dangerous, but lets all hope that micheal edward digianni, is completely wrong about 2010. I belive we will all survive for many more to come, and that these objects heading towards earth will be blown up before they do damage
